> Thanks for the suggestion, Steve, but No - when I insert 25:17:07::interval into my table I get 01:17:07 into the table - i.e., it replaces 25 hours by (25 mod 24) hours or 1 hour, and this is not what I want. I really need the number of hours rather than the number of hours mod 24. Do I have to make a composite type to get what I want???
I'm not seeing that result:
xof=# create table t (i interval);
CREATE TABLE
xof=# insert into t values('25:17:07'::interval);
INSERT 0 1
xof=# select * from t;
i
----------
25:17:07
(1 row)
Can you show what you are doing that gets the result you describe?
